WILLIAM JOHNSON. 



April 17, 1858. 



Mr. Case, from the Committee on Invalid Pensions, made the following 

REPORT. 

The Committee on Invalid Pensions, toiohom tvas re/erred the memorial 

of William Johnson, report: 

That the memorialist alleges that in the month of January 1815 
whi St on a march from Buffalo to Greenbush, in the State of New 
York, with a detachment of the 5th and 14th infantry of United States 
troops, he " was badly ruptured in the right groin; that by reason of 
said rupture he has been entirely unfit for any hard manual labor- 
and hence, after he had got a family around him he had to turn his 
attention to the study of medicine in order to be able to support them 
He IS now very poor and old, almost 70 years of age, and yet he would 
not at this late day apply to his country for assistance were he able to 
support himself, and were it not for the fact that he has a young loife 
and three children to support. The youngest onlyfve and three years 
of age _ The memorial is wholly unaccompanied by proof that the 
a leged injury occurred whilst in the line of his duty as a soldier, and 
other facts set forth are sufficient to justify your committee in the be- 
liet that the injury is not so serious as to authorize them to grant a 
pension. They ask to be discharged. ^
